Hello.......

Hi all, yet again I've been letting the blog slip. ooooppppssss. The bear fair went ok, but most people seemed to be out for a look and a wander so didn't sell that much. My sister in law did sell a couple of bears, and I only sold a couple of hearts, which was a bit disappointing. I've put a few pics of them on here.

Works still manic and have just finished an induction to Play work course, which was interesting, but the whole group tended to disagree with a lot of what the course had to say, such as give a child a packet of matches and let them play with them, and let them climb 50ft trees with no safety equipment as long as the tree has been risk assessed. that sort of thing.

Trying to do Slimming world in a big way at the moment. I've tried really hard this week. Its weigh-in on Thursday morning and I'm hoping to do well. Tried a quorn roast thing on Sunday, but it was bloomin awful. Won't be eating that again.

I haven't forgotten about the PIF's that I've got to do. I just haven't had a lot of time of late, but will try my hardest to get stuck into them as soon as I can.
Hope everyone is ok, speak to you soon. PD XXXXXX

The New Forest Bear Festival

Hi everyone. sorry I haven't been around for a while, life's a bit hectic at the moment. Had my Grandads funeral on Wednesday, which was horrible. It was my first funeral and I didn't expect to get that upset. I was fine until I saw the coffin and then it hit home I think. I'm glad its over. Also mum and dad had to have their dog put to sleep on Saturday morning, which was quite sudden and unexpected, so not a great week all and all.

BUT ON A MUCH BRIGHTER NOTE........

This Sunday 29th June is the first New Forest Bear Festival. Which is being held in Beaulieu village. In walking distance from the motor museum, but there is also a park and ride available. My sister in law, makes gorgeous mohair bears (Teeny Bears) and we have a stall at the bear festival. I've been making some lavender shabby chic hearts for the stall to sell as well. Hoping it will be a fun day out. You can check out my sister in laws bears at teenybears.co.uk.
